Another Days Sunrise

John Orr Franklin


Lights rise
From shadows
As blue skies
Awake the night

Souls shine
On moonrise
A straight line
Across the knife

And now you see
All your loves a mystery
You never could tell
Until you came from far away
And lit up your world
With another days sunrise

Clouds break
Weightless
As hearts ache
Contagious

Reach out
And follow
As waves break
Upon the shore

And now you see
All your loves a mystery
You never could tell
Until you came from far away
And lit up your world
With another days sunrise
